Discharge day comes again, but this time we are all on board and feeling good about it. Shawn is feeling great! No trouble breathing, very minimal pain. So much better than when we tried this a week ago. He got up, put on his discharge shirt, and walked to the car. Yeah you heard me, wheelchairs are for bags.
Once on the outside Dave and Val took him to a local barber to fix up the Hack job of a buzz cut he got from one of his nurses in Utah. Hey, she’s a good nurse, no one said she had to be a good barber too. Looking pretty good with a fresh trim and a shave if I do say so myself.
I’ve been trucking along here in Utah. Trying my best to balance residency, packing, and licensing requirements in Ohio. I’ve gotten in a few good hikes with friends and hope to really make the most of my last three weeks here. It’s been wonderful and I am sure going to miss Salt Lake and all of the great people we’ve met in our short time here. Graduation party number 2 of 3 tonight. Wishing my date was here to join me.
The dogs are doing well in Iowa with my family. Arya loves being pampered by the girls who are equally enjoying her company. Can’t wait to be back with my babies soon. Both have birthdays coming up in July, and a reunion will make for an excellent birthday surprise!
